"In my reading of this wonderful book, we see with piercing clarity
why and how the activities of Romanticism still live and move and
have their being in postmodern and postromantic contexts."
--Jerome McGann, author of The Romantic Ideology and A Critique of
Modern Textual Criticism
"Moving out across time more than space, Active Romanticism: The
Radical Impulse in Nineteenth-Century and Contemporary Poetic
Practice . . . brings together poets and some critics to think
about a continuing romantic response as active in subsequent
poetry, offering an avant-garde rejoinder to continuing oppression
and repression."
--Studies in English Literature 1500-1900
